Excluding layers in the Identify Widget

TristanKnowlton — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 14:25:19 GMT

Does anyone know if there is a way to exclude layers in the .xml config file for the identify widget?

I would like some layers to be ignored if they are clicked on. I have so many layers in my map document to achieve the symbology I wanted but I don't want them all to be identified when clicked on.

Thanks!

One easy way is to just specify the layers you do want to be included in the identify when you are setting your identify parameters:

var identifyParams:IdentifyParameters = new IdentifyParameters();
identifyParams.layerIds = [58,59,60,61];

The layer numbers you specify correspond to the layer numbers you can find in the rest services directory for the service you are running the ID on.

Thank you very much, I changed the layerIds from "null" to the specific layer id in the for loop.

Works great thanks so much!!!
